Blog standard for new mayor
16th May 2006 09.04am
 
Councillor Gillian Durrant
Newbury's new mayor is keeping up with the times by running a blog about her year in office. Town councillor for Victoria, Gill Durrant, was elected the town's 420th mayor at the town hall last night, and the online diary will express apolitical views on town events like the Carnival and Spring Festival.

When the first mayor was elected, Newbury had less than 2000 people, but today's 35,000 means mass communication is the order of the day.
